The property sits right next to the Drive in theater and you can get in for free by staying at the property. Its just a cute little place with different themed rooms. We had Tom Cruise. We were too tired to go to the drive in but its a great amenity.

The Starlight Motel exceeded our expectations in every way. Quiet, uniquely decorated, comfortable beds, responsive (remote) staff. And very, very clean. Also easy reach to downtown Burlington waterfront. We will most definitely be back!

This property is connected to an outdoor drive in movie theater. I didn’t realize that. It was not a problem and the room was very nice and quiet. I think the theater admission was included with the room.
